Hosta - Luna Moth - Sale Price: $42.75 The Hosta Luna Moth, Hosta 'Luna Moth', is a stunning, easy to grow hosta that will make a cheerful presence in your perennial shade garden! A sport of Parky’s Prize, ‘Luna Moth’ produces thicker substance and wider margins.  In the spring the wavy, heart-shaped leaves emerge dark green with light green margins.  These margins will brighten to yellow in summer; this clumping plant also produces lavender flowers in early summer. If you are a beginner gardener, ‘Luna Moth’ is a great choice because of its exceptional form, color and vigor. ‘Luna Moth’ is a low care perennial and is ideal for shady positions and is one of the most popular for landscapes.  It is best to keep areas around hostas clear of excess leaf debris to reduce the presence of slugs and snails. It grows well in moist, well-drained, highly organic soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5.  Sandy loam is better than clay because it provides more aeration for the roots. Plant ‘Luna Moth’ in an area that receives the right amount of light.  The leaves need some morning sun to bring out the best coloration; too much sun will burn the leaves. Hosta 'Luna Moth' has an exceptional form and is a vigorous grower! * Mounded habit * Exceptional form * Fast grower

Clematis - Mme. Julia Correvon - Sale Price: $42.75 Clematis Mme. Julia Correvon, Clematis viticella 'Mme. Julia Correvon', produces stunning 4 true red flowers that display their beauty nearly all summer long! The flower tepals have deeply veined midribs and margins that are somewhat scalloped and recurving.  As each flower matures, the tepals twist, which creates an interesting combination of aging twisted flowers and fully open new flowers. 'Mme. Julia Correvon' is a vigorous grower that looks lovely when allowed to grow through small trees or shrubs! 'Mme. Julia Correvon' needs a supporting structure to grow properly but will also grow over large shrubs, over walls, cover stumps, and make perfect cover ups for unsightly service areas. Clematis is easy to grow in a rich, porous, alkaline soil with plenty of room for the roots to spread.  Best performance is when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, so apply generous mulch or a shallow-rooted ground cover near the base of the vine. Groom this plant after first flowering by cutting back the top one-third to one-half of some stems. Add this vigorous plant to your yard.  Its “true red” flowers will make a brilliant statement all summer long! * Colorful foliage * True red flowers * Vigorous grower

Trumpet Creeper - Sale Price: $49.95 The Trumpet Creeper, Campsis radicans 'flamenco', is a rapid growing, clinging vine that produces bright red orange trumpet shaped flowers that can get 3 inches long. Blooming in the summer months, it attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Also known as the Trumpet Vine, it is a tough vine for hot and dry sites. The invasive nature of this plant makes it hard to get rid of, but it is very hardy. It will become less invasive as long as seed pods are removed before they ripen and the plant cut back each spring before new growth develops. The abundant sprays of trumpet-shaped red orange flowers cover this deciduous vine for an extra long bloom season. Trumpet Creepers are often grown with multiple trunks. This vine is a woody climber that grows up to 30 feet tall with the main stem getting about seven inches wide. This plant flowers best in a full sun location. The rapid growth makes it an excellent plant for covering fences or arbors; clinging vines attach themselves to structures and climbs by aerial rootlets. Trumpet Creeper can take the form of a small shrub if it does not have structure to climb. * Fast growing* Vining habit* Bright red orange flowers
